Orbi RBK23 Wired Backhaul Through A Switch?
Hello internet, I just bought a RBK23 off amazon earlier which is due for delievery tommrow. I wanted to know if I can connect them for a wired backhaul through a network switch even though I kn...
Yes you can:
Recommended switches to use are non mananged switches and switches with out any green tech ethernet features. If you use a managed switch, be sure to disable ALL IGMP protocls on it.
thanks for that link pal. One more thing, do you think it would be better to connect router to a switch and then from switch connect the 2 satellites like its shown in the link you provided? or would it be better if I connect the router to satellite 1 and then from satellite 1 to switch and then run a cable from switch to satellite 2?
I presume either way would work however for more stability and less troubleshooting issues, I would connect both satellites more directly to a switch than daisy chain them of each other.
